That last bowl is pure dynamite! What type of finish did you use on these?
Thank you, Canary is so nice to work with and is gorgeous! Let’s see, the Angelim is Mylands Sanding Sealer to fill the pores, then Steel Wool, Yorkshire Grit, Steel wool, 2 coats of original Tried n True then Wax and buffed. The Chechen is sanded to 600 before using several coats of Yorkshire Grit then denatured alcohol to clean it off and cut down the oil content, then coats of shellac then lightly waxed and polished. Kinda the same for the Canary. I would like any input on these finishing processes.

I like your finishes, a very warm, natural look. I've not heard of Yorkshire grit - have to look that one up along with Mike's question about nano something or other.
